Energy Healing in Kea'au

Energy healing in Kea'au with Jason Donaldson means Sekhem, a certified master-level practice in an older Egyptian lineage, held online or in person by request for 90 minutes, $222. If "energy healing" is the broad term that brought you here, whether you were thinking of Reiki or hadn't landed on a specific modality, here's the direct answer: Jason's practice is Sekhem, not Reiki, and he names that difference plainly before you book.

Kea'au grew up around the old sugar plantation and today functions as the commercial crossroads for the Puna District, the point where residents from Pāhoa, Hawaiian Paradise Park, and Orchidland Estates pass through on their way to Hilo. That working-town character gives energy healing sessions here a grounded, no-pretense quality, a quiet room and a clear process rather than anything performative.

What a Sekhem energy healing session involves

The session opens with conversation about what's present for you, since the work often begins the moment you book, as dreams or meaningful moments surface beforehand. From there, grounding moves into deep relaxation, then channeled energy work: hands over the body, sound and vibration, sage, cedar, and Egyptian oils sourced through Jason's own lineage, running through Juliet Carillo back to Gamal, a fifth-generation alchemist in Egypt. He works through the soul chakra, about 12 inches above the head, holding the record of every lifetime, and the earth chakra, about 12 inches below the feet, for grounding. "I am merely the channel. They do the work," he says, referring to the Neteru, the Egyptian archetypal energies that show up differently from session to session.

Afterward, there's time to journal, then a debrief where Jason shares what came through, sometimes with a card or two pulled for confirmation. The effects often continue unfolding for a few days to a week.

Why "energy healing" instead of a specific brand name

Most people searching broadly for energy healing want hands-on work, a quiet space, and someone trained to clear stuck energy and support a sense of settling. They're not necessarily attached to a specific tradition's name. Sekhem covers exactly that ground, with an added layer of depth, work across what Jason describes as past, future, and parallel lives at a soul or monadic level, more multidimensional than a single-tradition clearing.

Who books energy healing from Kea'au

Kea'au's position at the crossroads of Puna means clients range widely: people who work in Hilo but live rural, longtime Puna residents, and newer arrivals drawn by more affordable land further out. Because the drive in from deeper Puna can run 20 minutes or more, some clients pair energy healing with Galactic Breathing in the same visit.

Experiences with Sekhem vary from person to person. Clients have described feelings of deep relaxation, warmth, emotional release, greater clarity, peacefulness, and a stronger sense of connection with themselves. Some people also describe physical sensations or shifts during or following a session. These experiences are personal and are not presented as expected or guaranteed outcomes. This is complementary support, never a replacement for medical or mental health care.

If you were specifically searching for Reiki

Jason's practice is Sekhem, an older, related Egyptian lineage, not Reiki itself. Read the full comparison to see exactly where the two overlap and diverge before you book.

Online, studio, or home visit

Kea'au sits about 10 minutes south of Hilo on Highway 11, right at the Highway 130 junction toward Pāhoa. Jason lives and works in Hawaiian Paradise Park, a short drive up on Hwy 130, and most people begin online. To meet in person, write first. He can see you at his small studio at 10am, 11am or noon, or travel to your home by arrangement during regular business hours.

Settling in before the work begins

Energy healing sessions start slow on purpose. The first several minutes are just conversation, what's going on in your life right now, what you're hoping to get out of the time, anything that's come up since you booked. Only after that does Jason move into grounding and the hands-on channeled work itself. That unhurried opening matters more than it might seem. A nervous system settles faster when it isn't rushed straight into something unfamiliar, and the quieter pace of a plantation-era town like Kea'au suits that kind of gradual easing in better than a faster-moving place might.

Oils, sage, and sound as part of the work itself

Egyptian oils sourced through Jason's lineage, sage, cedar, and moments of sound or vibration all enter a session as the work calls for them. These aren't decorative touches added for atmosphere. They're carried through the same lineage as the hands-on channeling itself, treated as inseparable parts of how the energy moves rather than optional extras layered onto a generic session.

How often clients return for energy healing

Some clients book a single session and feel complete. Others come back every month or two, treating it as regular maintenance rather than a one-time event. Jason doesn't push a set schedule or a package of sessions. He checks in with each client at the end of a visit about whether and when another session makes sense, letting that pacing follow what the person actually needs rather than a fixed plan.

Background behind the practice

Jason has worked in energy healing, breathwork, and tarot on the Big Island for more than twenty years, with Sekhem specifically part of his practice for about five of those years. That longer history means a session draws on more than one strand of training at once, his psychological background, his own breathwork method, and his Sekhem lineage, rather than a single technique applied the same way every time.
